  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Three couples, an elderly couple, a middle-aged couple and a young newly-wed
couple wanted to join a church. The priest said, "We have special
requirements for new parishioners. You must abstain from having sex for two
weeks."



The couples agreed and came back at the end of two weeks.



The pastor went to the elderly couple and asked, "Were you able to abstain
from sex for the two weeks?"



The old man replied, "No problem at all, Priest."



"Congratulations! Welcome to the church!" said the priest.



The priest went to the middle-aged couple and asked, "Well, were you able to
abstain from sex for the two weeks?"



The middle-aged man replied, "The first week was not too bad. The second
week I had to sleep on the couch for a couple of nights but, yep we made
it."



"Congratulations! Welcome to the church," said the priest.



The priest then went to the newly-wed couple and asked, "Well, were you able
to abstain from sex for two weeks?"



"No Pastor, we were not able to go without sex for the two weeks," the young
man replied sadly.



"What happened?" inquired the priest.



"My wife was reaching for a can of corn on the top shelf and dropped it"

said the young man. "When she bent over to pick it up, I was overcome with
lust and took advantage of her right there."



"You understand, of course, this means you will not be welcome in our
church" stated the priest.



"We know," said the young man. "We're not welcome at the Supermarket anymore
either..."
